UMass Football Recruiting 2020--Gerrell Johnson II


Gerrell Johnson, a 6-3 195 pound athlete from Owings Mills, MD has signed with UMass.

I blogged about Johnson back in June.

Updating...

Listed as an "athlete" by 247Sports Johnson was recruited by Aazaar Abdul-Rahim and Tommy Restivo, so linebacker is his likely position at UMass.

Hudl.com has senior highlights.

MaxPreps has senior stats.

Gets a mention as one of the the top performers at the 2019 Maryland Grab Bowl (requires 247Sports VIP level).

"Johnson made several tackles in the game and was hard to block coming off the edge for Team Baltimore."

Johnson has a big frame and good speed. Given the depleted numbers of UMass linebackers, he should have a chance to play early.
